Abstract

This chapter describes the application of the Intervention Mapping (IM) framework through a case study of the development of an in-house medication adherence mHealth app for oral anticancer medications (called MedFC). Using the behavioral intervention frameworks described previously, this chapter discusses how patients' medication adherence needs, mobile app usage, perceptions and experiences with the prototype helped inform the development of MedFC. Through iterative evaluations, this chapter will illustrate how a mHealth intervention can be developed in a holistic manner, involving its target audience in the design process.
